Habitats

Several habitats of the maritime croplands were created in the Living Field garden to allow plants with different needs to flourish. The soil is the same – the habitats differ in the type of seed or plants originally introduced, management, shade and wetness.

The images above show (top left, clockwise) wild iris in the ditch, wild rose in the hedge, the herb garden, flowering field scabious in the meadow, cornfield poppy, birch tree and (centre) the cultivated plot.
